Elliott Graber is the booking and events manager for Latitude 44 in Sioux Falls, a venue where Kruse has played. Graber believes social media is a great way to keep music fans informed and to recruit artists from farther away.

"People come from Tennessee, or LA or wherever else in the region. So we try to just invite others to come in while we support our local artists," Graber said.

"There are a lot of very, very talented artists here. Ranging from folk, indie-folk, to pop rock, to heavy metal, to grunge, to emo, to scream-o," Graber said.
